    AM/Spotify Issues on S6

    So I might be losing my mind a bit here but I've been noticing that on WatchOS 7.5 Spotify is having this weird issue where I'll start playing music on the phone (iOS 14.6) and the Spotify app will pop up but the app will not keep up with what's playing on my phone. Noticed that even if I just...

    Braided solo loop stretched too much?

    My size 6 braided solo loop is now almost 3mm longer then my size 7 rubber one. Is this acceptable or can I request a new one from Apple since the watch is way to loose now?. Or is there something I can do to shrink the band?.

    Apple Watch Complication

    So I’ve been using Tiles for the last couple of years and one of the really good features for Apple Watch users is a specific complication that’s set to my watch Home Screen. Has anyone found a way to activate the Airtags without going through FindMy on the phone? Seems crazy there isn’t a...

    VPN for Apple Watch?

    Howdy, I use ExpressVPN on my Mac, iPhone, and iPad. I don’t have a VPN setup for my Apple Watch. I have the cellular version. Does anyone know if ANY VPN service supports Apple Watch? Is it even possible on Apple Watch? Thanks!

    40mm or 44mm??

    Hey everyone! I have recently bought the 40mm series 6 Apple Watch but I’m not sure whether it looks too small on my wrist and now contemplating getting the 44mm instead. I have a wrist of about 140mm, although might not be extremely accurate. I have took pictures with my dads old 42mm watch...

    What do you do with your Apple Watch?

    Hello All, I've had an Apple Watch since the launch of the original, since then I've moved to S3 and next month I plan to move again to a S6.

    Is it possible to use the eSIM only on the Apple Watch?

    Does someone know if it’s possible to use dual-SIM on my iPhone (11 pro) in such a way that the phone will use the primary SIM and the watch will use the second, eSIM, without the iPhone being connected to two networks all the time? Context: my cellular plan is given to me by my employer. They...

    Beware of trade in via mail

    This is kind of a rant so if that’s not your thing please do not read. I recently traded in a Series 4 for a Series 6. I wanted to do the trade in while in the store picking up the Series 6, but was told due to COVID they were not able to do that. Which in and of itself bothers me because they...

After...

I'm 5'10" @220 lbs. I can no longer run, but...
